A Fast Express Locomotive.

The Hinckley Locomotive works are at
the present time building an express loco
motive with single pair of driving wheels.
1t is intended to use it on the "Flying Yam
kee" fast train which runs over the Boston
q Maine and Maine Central Roads. 1t will,
1t is expected, be completed in about a
month. 1t proposes many peculiar features
that are in part, at least, experimental, and
much interest is felt in railroad circles
in the results that will be accomplished. All
the difficulty of slipping,d probably
be overcome by the use of sand blast now
successfully used on many English roads
and undergoing trial on the Chicago, Bur-
lington and Quincy. The sand being thrown
on the rail by jet of compressed air, can
not be blown off before the wheel reaches
it. Experience in England goes to prove
that the success of engines with a single
pair Of drivers depends entirely upon the
character of the sand supplied. If dry and
delivered fairly on the rail close to the driv-
ing wheel tread no time is lost from slipping
even where the tractive power of the engine
is "a pounds per pound pressure ON the pis-

Perry,s Hat store.

Mr.. L. N. Perry, the well known halter at
No. 245 Middle street, has retired from busl-
ness and has sold out his valuable stock OF
hats. caps, furs and other goods and fixtures
OF first class hat and fur store, to his son,
Mr.. Charles A. Perry. who will continue In
business at the old stand. 1t would seem
hardly necessary 10 call attention to Mr.
G. A. Perry's clearly worded and distinct
advertisement. His father has been one OF
our best known business men who has built
up large trade, both in and out of town,
by his fair dealing, and his excellent taste
which has enabled him to keep on hand all
the latest novelties in the market. Mr..
Charles Perry has greatly aided his father
the past fifteen years and has obtained
valuable experience which, added to his own
natural taste and ability, will keep up the
high standard for which Mr.. E. N. Perry
has been noted. 1t Is with the regret of the
business community that the father steps
out of the harness, not but what they are
glad to see him enjoy prosperity he has so
fairly won, but because such man is loss
in the progress Of town. There is this
consolation however that he has left the
business in the hands of one so worthy to
succeed him.

Two Men and Woman Have a Mar

Yesterday afternoon as the steamer Green
wood was on her 2.45 trip to Peaks Island.
when short distance below Bug Light. Mr..
Z. c. Milliken, who was among the passen-
gers, saw rowboat, then long distance
ahead of the steamer, capsize and precipi-
tate the three occupants into the water. Mr..
Milliken shouted to the captain, "Theres
boat capsized." The Greenwood at once
ran to the spot and rendered assistance.
Inc occupants of the rowboat were two men
named Donovan, and Mrs. Della Donovan
their sister-in-law. When the steamer
reached them the men had righted their
boat and got their lady companion into it.
The water in the little craft weighed her
down so that she would not have floated,
with Mrs. Donovan in her, had not the men,
by remaining in the water and lifting on the
boat, kept her afioat One of the brothers
had his arms around Mrs. Donovan and also
clutched the thwart upon which she had
been placed. The other, at the stern of the
boat, was treading water and thus keeping
up his end Of the nearly submerged craft.
AS soon as the Greenwood got alongside,
rope was placed around Mrs. Donovan, who
was too frightened to assist herself much,
and she was drawn ON board the steamer.
Then the men climbed to the deck and the
boat was taken in tow. As soon as the
dripping lady found herself in the larger
boat, her thoughts returned to her lost bon
net, which was bobbing up and down on the
waves several hundred feet astern. True to
the instincts of the feminine mind, she at
once spoke OF her loss and in flash one of
her companions, with his wet clothes and
heavy boots on, was again in the water and
swimming towards the floating bonnet He
reached it, placed it on his head, and turned
towards the steamer. this juncture the
Emita glided up and her excited passengers
shouted, "We'll save you, we'll save you.'
Il don't want any help" replied the SWIM
mer, as he kept on his course. A sail boat
also offered assistance, and Donovan was fl
nally taken into rowboat and brought to
the steamer.
The men were inclined to be reticent as to
the cause of the accident. but Mrs. Donovan
explained it by saying that they wouldn't be
so anxious again to make boat rock more
after steamer had passed them. The boat
referred to was the Forest City, which was
on her upward trip. All the passengers
united in congratulating the three persons
upon their escape and praising the courage
of the men. The two men thought so little
of what they had done that they wanted to
row back to the city. Captain Dean of the
Greenwood, deserves credit for his prompt
ness in getting to the scene.

sHALL WE EAT MEAT OR Nora

Everybody will tell you now in this season Of
summer that you ought not to eat so much meat.
"Try the vegetarian diet" they say. Well, we
have tried the vegetarian diet until we are sick
Of it. 1t is hard to get in Ameria and it is costly.
And we believe anyway that man is carvivorous
to large degree. Still, vegetables ought to be
eaten In their season. The only trouble is one is
so apt 10 get at hotels and restaurants only such
vegetables as have lain in the sun and turned a
"cholera green" OF course, there is risk in eat
ing such food. Better protect yourself as well as
possible by having always within reach some
BRANDRETH's PILLS. A dose of three to ten ac-
cording to your bulk, will generally act as pre-
yentive against all diseases arising from eating
impure food.
